This thread is to provide early insights and discussion on the new “Starfall Circus” Challenge Event
Don’t get too attached
Details from Beta, especially brand-new Beta content, don’t tend to be very reliable for actual release.
It’s incredibly common that features are changed during Beta testing, or sometimes even after testing but before release. That is, after all, the purpose of Beta testing.
So I wouldn’t get too attached to any of this — it’s not unheard of for entire portions of features to be removed or reworked, or for radical changes to functionality to be made.
New Starfall Circus Heroes
A new challenge event = new heroes…
For more information on see here: 🧪 Early Information on New Starfall Circus Heroes [Part of The Beta Beat v38]
Circus Heroes in Challenge Event
As with the League of Villains heroes, the Starfall heroes have a bonus when they are used in the Starfall Circus challenge event.
Specifically:
- Heroes of the Starfall family bypass the Elemental Barriers, and have increased attack, defense, and health (+20%) in this Challenge Event’s stages
Some Notes:
- This bonus ONLY applies to Starfall Family Heroes IN the Starfall Event.
- It is NOT limited to Unique heroes only… Any and all Starfall heroes gain the bonus stat boost.
Special Gameplay
A new feature added to Starfall Circus is that, the “Stars Fall every 5 turns”
The Stars Falling triggers 3 actions:
- Starfall deals {x} damage to all Heroes
- Changes the element of all heroes to the element they are strong against (lasts for 5 turns)
- Interferes with 2 of your Battle Items. The interference prevents the use of a Battle Item for 3 turns.
Some notes:
-
Starfall damage is 100 for Rare, 150 for Epic and 200 for Legendary
-
Element Change makes use of Guardian Chameleons Ailment. It is NOT cleansable & does not have a duration… So it essentially will cycle your heroes thru each colour every 5 turns…
- Red heroes → Green → Blue → Red (changes every 5 turns).
-
Battle Item interference is random. So there is the chance that the same item/s will be interfered with on 2 consecutive Starfalls.
Some Bugs:
- Currently every time you do Stage 1, it has 3 pop-ups explaining each of the 3 effects… And the clock keeps running in the background… Has been reported for fixing
- Starfall triggers twice if you use special skills to clear a stage right after the starfall has occurred. Reported for fixing.

Yes, you saw that right. Trainer Heroes are in this portal also (same as in Legaue of Villains). The odds tho are different from LoV portal. There is STILL NO CHANGE to the event hero odds from any of the otehr Challenge Event Heroes.
The 11% odds needed for the Trainer Heroes has come from Rare Classic & Epic Classic Heroes

Table Below compares Starfall odds to other event portal odds:
| Hero Class | Starfall | League of Villains | Classic Challenge Events e.g. Guardians |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rare Classic | 53.1% | 58.1% | 63.1% |
| Epic Classic | 19.8% | 15.8% | 20.8% |
| Legendary Classic | 1.5% | 1.5% | 1.5% |
| Rare Trainer | 10% | 5% | - |
| Epic Trainer | 1% | 5% | - |
| Rare Event | 7.9% | 7.9% | 7.9% |

| Legendary Event | 1.0% | 1.0% | 1.0% |
| HotM Bonus | 1.3% | 1.3% | 1.3% |
Challenge Coins
The “Starfall Circus” makes use of the existing Challenge Event Coins currancy for summoning. It also features the Suspicious Chest’s as a rare & random monster which drops 1x Challenge Coin as bonus loot.
The premise of Suspicious Chests appears to be similar to the concept of Orichalcum Seadragons appearing at random during Atlantis Rises and dropping Atlantis Coins, which can then be used for Summons. One difference is that in initial testing, it appears that Suspicious Chests only drop a single Challenge Coin — but you only need 10 of them for a Summon, not 100.
